comply with applicable safety requirement for

exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on

scientific guidelines that include safety margins

designed to assure the safety of all persons,

regardless of age and health.

Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP), which is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram

of tissue.

• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by

DASY4 for use at the ear is 0.923 W/kg (10g).

• SAR data information for residents in

countries/regions that have adopted the SAR limit

recommended by the Institute of Electrical and

Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.6 W/kg

averaged over one (1) gram of tissue (for example
